Tech2000,

Stop reading the speculations from the medias. If you want to know the facts, reading the written testimonies of every witness. So far, the government can not even prove that Microsoft had a monopoly in OS, so how can the government prove that Microsoft had abused its monopoly power ? Who will win or loss ? it is hard to say at this point, but everyone had a right to guess, including the reporters, and the analysts,
and there are always panic investors all the time. Just think last May, when the DOJ file the suit, MSFT drop from $120 to $95, and what is it now ?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Justice Department and representatives of 19 states are pondering possible remedies if they win their antitrust case against Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq:MSFT - news) -- from breaking up the company to ordering it to cease violating the law, sources said Monday.

A classic case of counting chickens before the eggs are hatched. If I get a choice, I'll vote for breaking the company up. It would make me rich.
